I have been removing the Bulldog in favour of the Basilisk, recently. Basilisk+Fury seems like a decent mix. Or maybe the Kobalt to take out those sneaky engies and LAs, or one of the AA guns for the flying rats.

New SMGs are out! NC and VS get 50 bullets per mag, tr gets 60. kind of surprising actually, and i really want to see their stats now. i already have the orion/vx6/hv45 for close quarters combat, so this new one could be good for me if it's more of a mid-range weapon

I'm really curious about them. I've decided I'm getting an SMG with my 1k certs (fuck sarons, there's enough of those in the outfit, and fuck rocketpods with the current annihilator spam), so I'm going to be testing them both.

that's a generally pretty informative guide, but the interesting stuff is a bit down in the post. everyone should try the ultra setting out to see whether performance improves or not (due to load shifting from the cpu to the gpu). the same ini file also allows turning physx on, and if your hardware (or you) is particularly nuts you can change the "RenderQuality" (under display in the ini) to 1.4100000 for supersampling. Performance will suffer with that setting, but it might be oh so pretty ... in case you need screenshots. or something.

I tried the SMG. It's a 125 damage, 850 RPM gun. 50 round mag. I liked it. Liked it a lot. Liked it so much that I spent 1k certs on it and got it kitted out with advanced laser and a silencer. Probably also going to get softpoint on it. It's now my default CQB weapon on all classes.

The Galaxy interiors are form a reddit discussion I piled in on a few weeks ago. Someone suggested an internal view for Gals (and sunderers). They claimed to have seen it when they 'glitched' into one.

I had a gander at the files (go get ps2ls. it's great) and there's no interior for the current Galaxy model.

The game files include an (untextured) model of a Gal from ealier stages of development. That does have an interior. So does the piece of debris for the Galaxy fuselage. This was probably the interior that the person claiming to see one saw.

Galaxy interiors would be good, but all we currently have is an old model.

Re: the tanks.

I suspect those are player mock-ups, haven't had the chance to open ps2ls to check.

If they are not, then I would guess they are plans for a three-person tank they've talked about. Higby has mentioned he wants a three-person option for MBTs. A driver + main gunner + secondary gunner. He said a tank that requires three people would get some kind of added bonus, probably a specific weapon. The Mag would still be driver + gunner as one though, and be buffed some other way.
